Chapter 144

1


 

  {[A Psalm] of David.} Blessed be Jehovah my rock, who teacheth my hands to war, my fingers to fight;  

 

 


2


 

  My mercy and my fortress, my high tower and my deliverer, my shield and he in whom I trust, who subdueth my people under me!  

 

 


3


 

  Jehovah, what is man, that thou takest knowledge of him, the son of man, that thou takest thought of him?  

 

 


4


 

  Man is like to vanity; his days are as a shadow that passeth away.  

 

 


5


 

  Jehovah, bow thy heavens, and come down; touch the mountains, that they smoke;  

 

 


6


 

  Cast forth lightnings, and scatter them; send forth thine arrows, and discomfit them:  

 

 


7


 

  Stretch out thy hands from above; rescue me, and deliver me out of great waters, from the hand of aliens,  

 

 


8


 

  Whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood.  

 

 


9


 

  O God, I will sing a new song unto thee; with the ten-stringed lute will I sing psalms unto thee:  

 

 


10


 

  Who givest salvation unto kings; who rescuest David thy servant from the hurtful sword.  

 

 


11


 

  Rescue me, and deliver me from the hand of aliens, whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood.  

 

 


12


 

  That our sons may be as plants grown up in their youth; our daughters as corner-columns, sculptured after the fashion of a palace:  

 

 


13


 

  Our granaries full, affording all manner of store; our sheep bringing forth thousands, ten thousands in our pastures;  

 

 


14


 

  Our kine laden [with young]; no breaking in and no going forth, and no outcry in our streets.  

 

 


15


 

  Blessed the people that is in such a case! Blessed the people whose God is Jehovah!
